Great news for Dodona Manor, the Leesburg and Loudoun County community and all those committed to preserving General George C. Marshall’s legacy.
Federal legislation designating the George C. Marshall House at Dodona Manor as a National Park Service Affiliated Area has passed both chambers of Congress and is headed to the president’s desk.
The Marshall Center is deeply grateful to Representative Suhas Subramanyam and Senators Tim Kaine and Mark Warner for their leadership in advancing this legislation.
“This measure marks a historic milestone for Dodona Manor and is wonderful news for the Leesburg and Loudoun County community,” said Paul Michaels, chairman of the Marshall Center Board of Directors. “The increased visibility and expertise that come with National Park Service affiliation will help preserve this nationally significant landmark and help ensure future generations can learn from General Marshall’s extraordinary character and example.”
National Park Service affiliation will bring additional expertise and support to help preserve the Dodona Manor, improve visitor accessibility and expand programming that shares General Marshall’s life and legacy with the public.
